Sergio González: “Playing this way we will achieve the objective yes or yes”

Real Valladolid only lacked a pinch of success to beat Levante in a highly competitive game in the first half and in which they were much superior after the break. As recognized Sergio González, his coach, in the subsequent press conference, the locker room took it with anger, after staying with honey on her lips.

“It pisses me off that the team works piece by piece without and with the ball, although sometimes it costs more to see it, and the results do not always give us credibility. The last step to endorse all the work they do is missing. Playing like this I have no doubt that we will achieve the objective yes or yes; the pity is that many times the prize of the results does not arrive so that we all value it in its fair measure, “he indicated.

However, the Catalan coach did not put “any but” to the performance of his pupils, despite the fact that at the beginning of the first part it cost them “a little” to be “more self-conscious”. “In the last 15 minutes and in the second we have been a gale. We have come from both sides, we have had opportunities that we have not scored, the shot that Aitor has stopped, the penalty … It seemed that he did not want to enter, but I am proud of the work and the second half is one of the most important of the year“it affected.

At the break, there was a turning point again, after the coach spurred his team to relieve them of a responsibility that he had previously spoken about. In his view, “he lacked rhythm” and his players they were being “excessively responsible”, with the feeling that there is “a great rush to save themselves”. “We have activated. It had to be us and we have done it with a beautiful second part”, as Sergio defined it, in which they interpreted well how they could “harm” Levante in different ways, such as through lateral centers or with his game between the lines.

In this sense, Sergio González appreciates the rage with which the blanquivioletas took the tie, although he called again for calm on the way to permanence. “Let's be calm. We are going to fight, but with a feeling of calm. Playing as in the second part, the results will surely accompany. We have to block the success, because everything else we have managed to do, “he concluded, not without also considering the work of Ünal, despite the wrong penalty.
